Qin Yining didn't know that someone had come here. She waited until the afternoon when everyone was cold enough to bring them here.
"The girl has been waiting for a long time, and the lady just ordered an errand, which took a little delay." Jin's mother only explained a little, and without giving Qin Yining time to speak, she introduced the four maids behind her to her.
"This is Yu Xiang and Rui Lan. They are both second-class maids next to the eldest lady. They are the most gentle and docile in temperament. They were specially assigned to serve. These are Liu Ya and Qiu Lu, third-class maids."
Qin Yining looked at the four in turn.
The four of them all looked like they were sixteen or seventeen years old. Yu Xiang was tall and thin, with a striking appearance, but her eyes were too flexible. Rui Lan looked plump, with an honest and honest smile. Liu Ya's lips are very thin, and she seems to be able to speak well. Qiu Lu bows her head and seems to have no sense of existence. She should be a person who is used to silence.
Yu Xiang, Rui Lan, Liu Ya and Qiu Lu all came forward to salute Qin Yining.
Qin Yining nodded lightly and let them stand aside.
Mama Jin added: "There is also a steward mother and a little girl who is in charge of cleaning."
As soon as the voice fell, an old woman brought three little girls around ten years old, dressed in red and green, into the door.
Jin's mother introduced: "This is Zhu's mother. In the future, I will be responsible for managing the size of the Sydney courtyard. These are the little girls who will be dispatched by the girl in the future."
"The slave and maid have seen the four girls." Zhu's mother is a chubby woman with a simple and honest face. She has silver threads on her temples, and she must be fifty years old.
"I wish mother please get up." Qin Yining said slowly.
Mama Jin said: "The people have been brought here. The girl just needs to make orders. If there is an order, you can come to find the slaves at any time."
"There's Mama Laukin."
Mama Jin bowed and left.
Qin Yining frowned slightly.
She was new here, and she didn't have the money to give her a reward. In fact, if Mama Jin was a little bit more kind to her, given her status in the manor, it would be more effective to casually order these people to do things than her words.
But Mama Jin only perfunctory to her, and refused to tell these people a word. Mama Jin is the person of the eldest lady, and her meaning is the meaning of the eldest lady.
It seemed that her biological mother really didn't like her.
Qin Yining took a breath and looked at the eight people standing in front of him.
She suffered since she was a child, how could she have called others to do things? At this point, there was really no way to start.
Seeing that she didn't speak, the eight couldn't help but look at each other.
After a while, Qin Yining looked at the main house and the wing room that were still locked, and said slowly: "I think you all know my situation. I have arranged for you to come to me, but I have really wronged you. , I didn't have the chance to grow up with my parents, but she is my father's biological daughter, as long as you do your duty well, we will live the life together."
A word with multiple meanings. It was Qin Yining who could come up with the most appropriate words. She just wanted to live a peaceful life.
"Yes." Everyone saluted in unison, and they couldn't help but look at Qin Yining a few more times.
It is said that this girl looks exactly like Prime Minister Qin, but now, isn't it true! Although she grew up in the countryside, she also worked as a savage in the mountains. But the power on her body can't be faked, so that people don't dare to surpass it when they look at it for no reason.
The people who were contemptuous then restrained a little, and those who felt that they were unlucky and miserable also suppressed their minds for the time being.
Qin Yining ordered everyone to clean up the house.
There are three main rooms, as Qin Yining's living and entertaining place, one in the east wing is arranged for Zhu's mother to live alone, one is arranged for two second-class maids to live with, and one in the west wing is for two third-class maids. The children all live in the reverse seat, next to the kitchenette.
As soon as this room was cleaned, Mama Jin brought people to the other room and brought in a set of bedding and curtains, utensils, four treasures of the study, clothes, shoes and socks, and rouge and gouache, and handed over two taels of silver to Qin Yining.
"Girl, this is the monthly payment for this month. According to the rules of the government, the girls are divided into two and two. The other three meals have to go to the big kitchen to carry the food boxes, and they have to be saved in the morning and evening..." Mama Jin said again. Feeling a little impatient, he turned and said, "In the future, the girl will understand when she lives for a long time."
"I'm sorry Mama Jin. I'll go and greet the eldest lady later." Qin Yining smiled.
Mama Jin smiled and left without saying anything.
After an hour of tidying up, the house finally looks brand new.
The furniture in the room was already there, but it was replaced with a light green mattress and chair, and the bed was replaced with a light green tent, and a delicate incense ball was hung. The quilt is also thick, and I wish my mother was holding a mother-in-law and stuffed it into the quilt to heat it up.
Yuxiang and Ruilan were sorting out her makeup and wardrobe, putting away some bottles and jars, and setting up some fancy and beautiful heads. The little girls went out with wooden basins, hurriedly cleaning the wing and the seats.
From now on, this is her home.
Although it was damp and depressed, it was much better than the cave where she lived. The people around her, although she didn't know if they all had good intentions towards her, it was much better to have someone talk to her than to talk to squirrels and rabbits on the mountain by herself.
As long as she is willing to endure and work hard, life will always get better and better.
Qin Yining sat on an armchair with a soft mattress in the main hall, and a smile appeared on her bright face.
"Girl." Qiu Lu came to the front with a tea tray, and placed the delicate white porcelain plum cup on the black lacquered square table beside her.
She has not touched a drop of water since she returned to the house, and has been frozen outside for an hour. It has long been cold. Now that she starts with a cup of steaming tea, the warmth warms her heart.
She couldn't help but smile and said, "Thank you."
Qiu Lu hurriedly said: "The slaves don't dare."
Listening to this movement, Yu Xiang, who was finishing her makeup, pouted.
Rui Lan glanced at Qiu Lu, took out a honey-colored brocade cloak just brought from the mahogany cabinet, smiled and said, "Girl, put it on first, but don't catch a cold. This servant will tell someone to go. Lift the food box."
Qiu Lu withdrew with a tea tray.
Liu Ya brought Madam Tang in, wrapped it in a handkerchief and placed it on Qin Yining's lap.
Qin Yining also smiled at her, but no longer thanked her.
She saw Rui Lan's eyes just now.
She needs to get used to her current status as soon as possible.
At this moment, out of the corner of Qin Yining's eyes, he saw Yu Xiang carrying a booklet in her arms.
"What is that, let me see it." Qin Yining put down the cup.
Yu Xiang turned her back to Qin Yining and rolled her eyes, then turned around and handed the booklet with a smile on her face: "This is the booklet registered by Yiying in Sydney Hospital."
Qin Yining looked carefully.
Yu Xiang pouted and looked at Rui Lan.
She couldn't believe that she could still recognize these words!
There are not many things in the house, but there are not many things. I saw Qin Yining turned to the column of makeup and jewelry, pointed to the line above, and said, "I didn't see this gold-studded pearl headband."
Yu Xiang's face froze.
Hasn't she been sitting here all the time, with so many people walking around in the house and placing so many things, how could she remember everything one by one
Rui Lan hurriedly walked to the makeup bed, looked left and right, then went to Luo Han's bed to rummage for a while with her back to Qin Yining, then took out the headband and smiled, "I found it, it was the servant who was inattentive and fell on the mattress. Down."
Qin Yining smiled lightly, pointed to the section of clothing, and said, "I didn't see the blood jade gourd pressing skirt mentioned here." After saying that, she closed the booklet and handed it to Yu Xiang, and said with a smile, "You two. Think about it carefully, but I don't want to be able to step on an earring from my shoes every day when I wear shoes."
With a joke, Yu Xiang's face turned red, and Rui Lan's face was a little embarrassed.
Qin Yining stopped talking, and still hugged Mrs. Tang for warmth.
And there are some more small things that have just been seen in the makeup box and the wardrobe.
Qin Yining lowered his eyes, feeling amused.
She knew that she couldn't convince the public when she first arrived, and that the maids in the house would embezzle her things in person. They probably didn't know that she had never forgotten her since she was a child, and for many years, she had dealt with hunters and medicinal herb dealers, and had trained her a hundred times. The weight of something that comes in a pound can be calculated by flipping it by hand, and the error will not exceed one or two.
He lowered his eyes and put his white hands covered with scars and calluses on Mrs. Tang to keep warm.
It seems that there are still many difficulties in her future road. First of all, it is better to put the people around her right.
—
"Has everyone made arrangements?" Qin Huining took the tea from Bitong after dinner, and then asked Cai Shi with a smile.
"Miss Hui, everything has been arranged. I replaced three people who were supposed to be arranged, and arranged for Yu Xiang, Rui Lan, and Liu Ya to go there. These three have excellent temperaments. The steward's mother also arranged for Mother Zhu. "
"Wish mother?" Qin Huining wondered.
Cai explained: "It's the one whose son is the barn manager in the outer courtyard and the one whose daughter-in-law is in the kitchen."
Qin Huining smiled when she heard the words: "I wish my mother a gentle temper, and Yuxiang, Ruilan, and Liuya are able to get along well." As she said that, she held Cai's hand with both hands, and said with a smile, "Nursing, thank you very much. You are here to help."
Cai Shi looked at Qin Huining with loving eyes and said with a smile: "What did the girl say, I nursed the girl for a while, and said something beyond the norm. In my heart, when a girl is like my own child, how can I watch it? Are you wronged? Don't worry, the days are still long, and the water in the prime minister's residence is deep."
This sentence entered Qin Huining's heart.
She hugged Mrs Cai gratefully and said with a smile, "Let's go, let's go to Xingning Garden to say hello to mother."
Cai said with a smile: "That newcomer might not even understand the rules of stupor."
Qin Huining put on the big red kesi cape handed over by the maid, and said with a smile, "She will understand later." But it will be too late when she understands. The reputation of vulgarity has spread.
Qin Huining took Cai and Bitong to Xingning Garden.
Originally thought that Qin Yining didn't know the rules, didn't know how to save in the morning and evening, but unexpectedly, he saw Qin Yining wearing a honey-colored brocade cloak, and he was coming here with Rui Lan and Qiu Lu.
